• 3 Dec 2014 in Senate: Madam Temporary Speaker, as I was saying, research and policy matters should be run by the national Government. It is not matters that require a board to be established so that it can determine how fertiliser can be distributed. Madam Temporary Speaker, this is the age of free economies in this country. We need to give the county governments free wings to fly. We need to give them enough time for them to know how they can source for fertiliser.

• 26 Nov 2014 in Senate: Mr. Speaker, Sir, thank you for giving me this opportunity so that I may also join my colleagues in solidarity. Before I comment on this issue, I want to clear something that the Senate Majority Leader mentioned. There was no heckling at Uhuru Park.

They reminded us that we are a united front as Members of Parliament. I hope that this will continue. I commend you for that.
